  Good Catch Vicki. I have a stash of old plates in case I ever have to disappear. My daughter was concerned about having her plate front and center on KZread. However, if you look at the other Subaru videos, her plate is probably less prominently featured. Thanks for watching.

  Enjoyed the video. A few things - it's always worth replacing the crush washer on the drain plug. Perhaps you did this, but you didn't show it. Also, the first start after doing one of these, you should perform a "clear flood start", where you hold the gas pedal to the floor and crank the key for a few seconds. This turns the oil pump so your oil filter gets primed because it is empty right now. This helps with preventing oil starvation right at the beginning. It's in the manual.

  Hello Dan, this is the first that I have heard of the 16. I did a quick Google and maybe learned a little. Everything I read seemed to indicate the 16 could run on the 20, but should have the 16. If it was my brand new ride, I would tell the dealer that they need to get the right oil in it, like now. If they are not going to do that, I would change it to the 16 at 3,000 miles. I am no expert, but I would just do a regular oil change and not worry about any residual 20 left in there. Thanks for getting me into 2024 with the 16 discussion and thanks for watching.

  I have a 2017 Subaru 2.5 Ltr. If I run MobilOne in it, my preferred brand for a long time, it will use a quart of oil in about 4.5K miles. I went to Castrol Edge and it only uses about 3/4 of a quart in 6K, when I change it. Same viscosity, 0w-20. I put a quick change oil valve in place of the drain plug. I can reach in with one arm from the front of the vehicle and stab the hose on it, the put the hose into the drain bucket. Flip the valve handle, it has a safety detente, and it drains while I remove the filter and change that. That oil valve was the best thing I have purchased in awhile.
